Which writer is the most cliched?&,nbsp,Spanning from Shakespeare and Jane Austen&,nbsp,to fan fiction, JK Rowling and Stephen King, Blatt reveals the quirks and oddities of the world's greatest writers.&,nbsp,This is a lighthearted, humorous&,nbsp,book that uses numbers to inform our understanding of words to enlighten, to clarify, and, above all, to entertain.
